Katie, 46, explained on her podcast how Harvey – who was born with a rare genetic condition called Prader-Willi syndrome – has continuously experienced his ears ‘popping’.

It’s left the 22-year-old in so much pain over the last 12 months he’s been reduced to tears.

Mum-of-five Katie said: “Basically Harvey’s had this ear problem and he’s been going to the specialist for a year and a half.

“His ear keeps popping and that’s affected his year at college, learning and that, because he cries.”

Pricey went on to say how she’s brought Harvey to a private specialist who has suggested grommets are inserted into his ears to alleviate the pain.

She continued: “They want to put grommets in his ears and basically put a hole in it to stop the popping. So it releases something for him, which will stop that.”

Concerned for Harvey, Katie told her sister Sophie: “You’ve seen it, he’s in agony with it.

“It’s so frustrating when he’s in pain and there’s nothing I can do.”

Meanwhile, Katie was forced yet again to defend Harvey from cruel trolling online.

The star has had to defend her son from disgusting jokes and comments for most of his life.

In recent years she has campaigned for the introduction of Harvey’s Law – a bill that would see online offenders placed on a register.

Katie’s battle against the bullies has seen her launch petitions and make trips to Parliament.
